Hello community,
I'm doing a bring-up to a new SOC based on RISC-V and due to very strict
boot time constraints we decided to try out the falcon mode.
I'm using the latest 2025.01 version
I found a presentation from about 4 years ago that SPL in falcon doesn't
support kernel decompression
Does it support it now?
If not, is there any work in the community that is done to support it? Are
there any other alternatives?
If yes, is there any example?
Of course it's important to store the kernel in the flash in a compressed
form due to size constraints
thanks,
Ilya
